The water in the Schuykill has again
become polluted with some poisonous sub
stance, probably coming from the coal
mines in Schuykill county, which has
turned it to dirty repulsive blue color,
resembling soap-suds. The principal re-
suit of this is the destruction of the fish,
which are dying by thousands. their
carcasses strewing the banks and raising
an insupportable stencil. Bass, chub.
sunfsh, suckers and even cells succumb
to the poison and float ashore dead. Some
of the fish when taken out and put in fresh
water revive. The polluted water reaches
now as tar down as Douglassville and is
moving towards Philadelphia. Two or
three years ago the same thing occurred.
and all the fish in the river as far down as
Limerick were killed. II was supposed
at that time that it was due to the pump
inc out of abandoned mines Hundreds
of buzzards and other carrion birds hover
along the banks OF the river, eating the
carcasses.

province remains under English control
this will be impossible; but that there
may not be too much credit given these
people tor friendly relations with this
country, it is well to state that they desire
this union principally for their OWE ad-

on horseback, coming from the east met
him Oh the crossing, raised his revolver
and fired, killing his horse instantly and
throwing Bunyer on the bridge. The
man who did the shooting rode right

yer fell three men standing on the cat
tie guard opened fire on him. After re-
ceiving a ball in his hip he rolled off the
bridge to the ground and lay as if dead.
The shooting then ceased and one of the
men come to him, made an examination
to ascertain if he was dead and being
satisfied, he said, I'VE have done il

man was recognized by Bunyer to be

Rev. Mrs. Olympia Brown Willis, pres
ident of the Wisconsin WOman's Stuff
rage association, against the inspectors
of election of the Second ward of this
city, was called in the circuit court yes
terday. The case is an interesting one,
and involves the validity of law re
Gently passed by the legislature OF the
state. Mrs. Brown Willis alleges that she
is aQualified voter under law recently
passed relating to the right of women to
vote on school matters: that at the
municipal election held here April 5,
1857, she publicly offered her ballot to
the said inspectors, who refused to take
the same. She therefore prayed judg-
ment against the inspectors for the sum
of s., 200. Argument was then heard on
a demurrer to the complaint. When the
arguments of counsel closed, Judge
Winslow oyerruled the demurrer, thus
practically deciding that the law was
constitutional, and that Mrs. Willis was
entitled to vote. The defense will ,ap-

LONDON'S LORD MAYOR.
A Roman Catholic Assumes the
Robes of Office.


LONDON, Nov. aid. POlyder de
KeySer, the first Roman Catholic who
has been elected to the dignity of chief
magistrate of the metropolis, was sworn
into Office to-day with the usual impos-
ing ceremonies. Great crowds gathered
in the streets from an early hour to wit
ness the lord mayors procession, and
despite the fears that the socialists
would create trouble, the best of order
prevailed. A large force of police and
military was held in reserve for use in
an emergency, but the socialists con-
tented themselves with kissing and
groaning at few points along the route.
The streets throughout the ward of Far
ringdOn, of which the new lord mayor
is a resident, were magnificently dec
grated, $4,000 having been subscribed
by the residents for this purpose. The
procession moved along the following
route: Gresham street, Princess street,
Mansion House street, Pultney. Cheap
side, Newgate street, HolbOrn Viaduct,
Charter House street. Carthusian street,
Aldersgate street, Long Lane, West
SmIthfield, King street, harrington
street, Fleet street, Strand, Charing
Cross, Northumberland avenue, Vic
toria, Embankment, Queen Victoria
street, King street. at the end of which
the Guild hall is located. Here he was
met by the sheriffs, under sheriffs, alder
men and several thousand of the elite
of the city, the officials being clad in
their gorgeous robes of office, and the
scene was an inspiring one. The new
lord mayor took the same oath of office
which has been administered to his pred
ecessorS for the last two centuries, and
there were loud and prolonged cheers as
he placed the Bible to his lips.
Lord Salisbury in his speech at the
lord mayors banquet this evening said
the foreign outlook was peaceful.
Affairs in Ireland had greatly improved
and the government felt that it had the
support of the people in its policy.
